maintenanceguy 510 Posted August 24, 2015 When brushes, swabs, or bore snakes get filthy, I dip them in a coffee can of acetone and splash them around a little. Strips everything out of the fabric. Hang to dry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Schrödinger's cat 87 Posted August 24, 2015 Speaking of bore snakes, is there any reason not to buy the cheap knock offs on eBay ? Has anyone tried them ? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smile 0 Posted August 24, 2015 Amazon has these “Nuoya001” bore snake for around $5 (China made). Seems to have ok reviews…I have never tried it. Personally, I buy US made ones. It is well made and stronger. I always have the fear that the string will break and get the snake stuck in the barrel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JimmyAGR 54 Posted August 25, 2015 I put my bore snakes in old socks, separately and then wash. No tangles and not all over the place. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
